Meet Ex-Biddulph High Head Boy Who Was First Reporter to Interview Ian Huntley
- On August 4 2002, Brian Farmer interviewed Ian Huntley and Maxine Carr, then contacted police after his retired-detective brother advised him, leading to their arrest on August 17 2002.
- After speaking to the pair, Farmer recalled Huntley said he washed Sadie on Sunday evening, yet the couple didn't mention the dog, and Farmer thought Huntley's answers were untruthful.
- Farmer wrote that 'It seems they have just disappeared off the face of the earth', after Huntley wept, and his brother Derek advised him to contact police, calling Huntley's statements strange.
- At trial, jurors found Ian Huntley guilty of the murders and sentenced him to a life sentence with at least 40 years minimum recommendation, while Maxine Carr was jailed for 21 months and now lives under a new identity.
- Mr Farmer added, 'It simply can never go away for them, and this must be a day that's just beyond belief for them, isn't it, that they have to go through it again' after Huntley's death, with detectives linking Huntley's home to the case.
